I have a cousin who is interred in the San Francisco National Cemetery. Information given is his name, location details, last position within the US Navy and date that he died. I have also discovered elsewhere that he was in WWI. He died when his daughter was about 5. She is now in her 90's, very frail and would very much like to obtain as much of his military history documentation as possible as she remembers almost nothing about her Dad. We have submitted the appropriate form with what little information we had. What we are lacking is day of birth - we have month and year - the date that he joined the Navy - I can come up with an approximate year - and his military ID number. We received a letter back from the military personnel records center in St. Louis telling us that they didn't have enough to locate his records. I find this kind of hard to believe as the name is rather unusual: Jared Konizeski. Not very many Konizeski's around and I can count the number in the WWI military on just a couple of fingers. Any help locating a military ID or suggestions would be most appreciated. Shirley aumbre@earthlink.net
